Senior Citizens, ya gotta LOVE them!

OK folks, now I have surely waited a LONG time to become a senior citizen, and let me tell you, it is SO WORTH IT! Not only do I get some super discounts here and there and everywhere, but I actually get added days to my vacations!!!! Let me explain: I made the plane reservations for Buffalo, sometime early in March. Told everyone I was going to be gone until the 8th of July. OK, so somewhere along the way, amidst all the gray hairs, batwings, and aching muscles, I lost a day! I was saying I was due to fly back to Orlando on the 7th. A few peeps in my life thought they had just forgotten the dates and went along with me as far as the 7th goes. When trying to check into my flight tonight, I was told it was to soon. To soon I thought?????? After all I am leaving on TUESDAY at 5pm! Dumb airline! Went to my original e-mail from airline, in black and white, it says, Wednesday the 8th! Hmmmmm..................Soooooooo here I am............HAPPY AS A PIG IN MUD! Now I certainly love my hubby and my little dog Bill, but am SO HAPPY to have this extra day with my kiddos!!!! I think my hubby is a weeeeeeeeeee bit upset with me. (hehe) Um.............does anyone feel that I have a problem with my brain? I DON'T! (at all)

Gloria that is too funny...I too am enjoying the benefits of being 60...local coffee cafe called Gloria Jean's (is that you in disguise) offers those 55 and older excellent coffee for 1.00!! Madi and Mom
